closed beta of Immortal King, NGames brand new MMORTS, is finally
launching tomorrow (September 7th)!

As a reward for dedicated testing, players who stay online for
10 hours or more will be given an additional 250 gold to help them
fast-track their way to the top.

Unique Combat System

Immortal King features a new kind of combat system that is set
to revolutionize MMORTS webgames. The time of pressing a "send
troops" button and waiting impatiently for the results is a thing
of the past.

Immortal King is a browser-based SLG+RPG game with grand story
background and intriguing content. Players can develop numerous
combat modes and formations by combining their heroes and troops
into powerful arrays. Immortal King rewards clever planning and an
Art of War approach to battles - you might be outnumbered, but that
doesn't mean you're outgunned in the world of IK.

There are 72 types of soldier and 8 types of arrays in the game,
which can generate a massive amount of playing variety. The battles
are brought to life with stunning animation effects that show the
combat in action, with distinctive attacking effects and cool hero
skills that are unique to the characters you are commanding.

If you want to really show off your talents, you can even
combine different types of soldiers and allocate them new arrays as
the battle unfolds!

There are various modes of combat available in Immortal King, so
you will never be bored participating in the same old battles over
and over again.

You can challenge the gods of the three realms; fight against
other players; increase your colony; take part in interesting
quests to gather resources, gold and recruit more heroes; have
farmland and silver mine battles; and even fight for entire regions
and experience the momentum of a large scale war.

Huge League Battles

Immortal King's league battles will blur the line between web
and client games like never before.

League/alliance battles have often been a weakness of webgames
because they cannot be shown as impressively as client games. They
take all of the information from various players, process the
results in the background, then give players the outcome in text.
But Immortal Kings innovative league battle is different.

The game supports up to 100 gamers and 500 heroes in one
impressively animated scene. Now, not only can you watch the
breathtaking battles of the ancient ages as they unfold in front of
your eyes - you and your friends can join in and experience them
too!

The league battles even feature an "Inspiration" system to
encourage lower level players to get involved straight away. The
Inspiration system gives players a chance to show off their
potential power, rewarding clever thinking with defence buffs and
special skills.

The time for gods and heroes has come. Start your journey in the
Heaven, the Sea or the Underworld on September 7th and conquer the
world!
